Teamwork Makes the Dream Work

Hi, I’m Tiffany.

Founder & CEO

I've been married to my best friend, Joe, for nearly 24 entertaining years. We have one son, Joey (21), a talented musician in his fourth year of college (They grow up too fast 😢). We also live with a spunky, energetic Brittany Spaniel named Siri; she's my sidekick. —>

I love that anything is possible and that every day is a new beginning.

I have 20+ years of experience in the tax and accounting world. In addition, I hold an MBA in Accounting, and I am an Enrolled Agent (EA) certified by the IRS.

I pride myself on continuously improving—self-reflection and growth are our two most powerful tools. I'm so motivated by watching our clients succeed and reach new levels.

Hey there, I’m Caitlin.

accounting manager

My husband Ethan and I have been married for almost three years. We have one sweet one-year-old daughter named June. We also share our house with a crazy yet lovable husky named Sadie, who resembles a wolf (which we are told multiple times every time we walk her). 🐺

I’m inspired by all of the incredible women in my life, especially my mom, mother-in-law, and sisters, who are strong, funny, and incredibly smart.

I spent over 13 years running the business and financial side of a very successful music recording studio here in Philadelphia. I love working alongside creatives to help them with their passions. I also have certifications in QuickBooks ProAdvisor and preparing individual tax returns.

I’m motivated by our all-female team. Together we empower our clients and relieve the stress of their finances so they can live out their dreams.

Hi, I’m Niki.

accounting specialist

My husband, Jon, and I have been married for 14 years. Together, we have Adi (13) and Grayson (10). We share our home with my husband’s amazing 86-year-old grandmother and 2 snuggly mastiffs.

Our home is constantly overflowing with teammates, friends, laughter, singing, love, and dog hair. If we aren’t at home, it is safe to assume we are at the ball field watching the kids or their friends playing football, baseball, volleyball, etc.

We are the typical ‘Saturday in the South’ family and live, eat, and breathe college football (Go Dawgs!). Even though I am an introvert to my core, I love having everyone over to watch the game and hearing the cheers and boos throughout the home. It is, however, generally followed up with a long Sunday nap to make up for the chaos.

I like to say that I fell into accounting. I’ve always loved the black and white feel of numbers. I love working alongside creatives and helping others achieve their goals while pursuing my dreams.

My Favorite Things:

  • Time with my family (including the fur babies)

  • All of the coffee

  • Traveling of any type (beach bum at heart)

  • Crisp morning air

  • Jigsaw puzzles and board games

  • Atlanta Braves baseball and Georgia Bulldogs football

Hey there, I’m Jamie.

accounting specialist

I've called the Buffalo, NY, area home for most of my life. I have two siblings: a younger brother and a twin sister. Growing up, dogs were always part of my family, and right now, I have two dachshunds that my family adopted a few years ago from a local rescue. I am so grateful for all the joy and laughter they brought into my life!

I initially went into college without a clear direction of what career path I wanted to take. I signed up for my first accounting class because I've always had more interest in math and numbers than anything else. I enjoyed learning the fundamentals of accounting and how different transactions are recorded and used to help tell the financial story of a business. After taking a few more classes, I decided it was the path for me, and I eventually earned my bachelor's degree in accounting!

I'm so excited to work with the rest of the Bastian Accounting team and use the skills I've learned to help our clients!

My Favorite Things:

  • Puzzles (especially jigsaw puzzles and sudoku)

  • Spending time with my dogs, family, and friends

  • Watching football games with my family
    (Go Bills!)

  • Pretty much any pasta dish

  • The fall season (I love the cooler weather and seeing the leaves change color!)
